Title: Oswald Rivera's Berliner/Paczki/Jelly Donuts
Categories: Breads, Fruits
Yield: 15 servings

1/2 oz (2 env) active dry yeast
1/2 c Warm water
1 c Warm milk
3/4 c Sugar
1/2 ts Vanilla extract
1/2 ts Salt
4 c A-P flour; more for dusting
1/3 c Butter; softened
5 c Oil for frying; more for
- coating a bowl
13 1/2 oz Jar strawberry or fruit jam
Powdered sugar; for
- finishing

In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and
let it stand for about 5 minutes or until foamy.

In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture, milk, sugar,
vanilla, salt, and flour. Mix the ingredients until
smooth and soft but not sticky. If using a mixer, mix on
low speed for a few minutes until a shaggy dough forms.
Add the butter, increase speed to medium, and mix until
dough is smooth.

Grease another large bowel with oil. Form the dough into
a ball. Place dough in the bowl, turning to coat with
oil. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel. Set aside
in a warm spot and let rise until doubled in size, about
1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Lightly flour a baking sheet or surface (a large wooden
square block is perfect for this). Turn the dough onto
the floured surface and, using a rolling pin, roll out
until about 1/2" thick. Using a lightly floured 2" round
biscuit cutter, cut out as many rounds as possible
(should have 25 or more). Place on a lightly floured
sheet or surface, spacing them apart. Again, loosely
cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel, and let rise
until doubled in size, about 20-30 minutes.

Heat the oil in a deep-fryer, large skillet, or large
pot to 350°F/175°C. Using a flat spatula, carefully
slide the dough rounds into the hot oil and, working in
batches to avoid overcrowding, fry until they rise to
the surface, then turn over and fry until puffy and
golden brown (2-3 minutes). Drain on paper towels.

When the donuts have cooled, using a paring knife, cut a
small slit in the side of the donut, and fill this
center with jelly (about 1 tablespoon), using a pastry
injector, syringe, piping bag, or small spoon. Sprinkle
with powdered sugar and serve immediately.

There is actually a bit more to it than that. The roots of Donut Day
(first Friday in June) go all the way back to World War I, when The
Salvation Army's "Donut Lassies" served these sweet treats to soldiers. Created by The Salvation Army in 1938, the first Donut Day was a fund
raiser during the Great Depression. Today, it's a time to enjoy a donut
(or several) while providing comfort to those in need.

But Grandma! What big donuts you have!

Use your Bing search engine to fine your nearest Sally-Anne location and
check their web presence. Chances are they will have a "friend-raiser"
event featuring catered/prepared food and speeches ... as well as donuts.

Also both of my local Salvaton ArmyvThrift stores feature coffee and
crullers from time to time.

Title: Turkey a La King
Categories: Poultry, Mushrooms, Vegetables, Wine
Yield: 4 servings

6 tb Unsalted butter
2 tb All-purpose flour
1 3/4 c Turkey or chicken stock
2 c Sliced mushrooms
1 1/2 c Chopped cooked turkey
1/2 c Heavy cream
1 c Frozen peas
2 tb Dry sherry
Salt & fresh ground pepper
Fine chopped parsley;
- garnish

Make a roux. In a small saucepan set over medium heat,
melt 4 tablespoons of the butter. When it begins to
foam, sprinkle the flour over it, and whisk to combine,
then continue whisking until it begins to turn the color
of straw, approximately 7-10 minutes.

Slowly add 1 cup of the turkey stock to this mixture,
and stir to combine. Add more stock to thin the sauce.
Keep warm.

Set a large saute pan over medium-high heat, and add to
it the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. When it begins
to foam, add the mushrooms, and cook, until the
mushrooms have released their moisture and begun to get
glossy and soft, approximately 7-10 minutes. Add the
turkey, then the warm sauce and cream, and stir to
combine. Add the peas, then cook, stirring occasionally,
until the mixture is hot and has thickened slightly,
approximately 7-10 minutes.

Stir in the sherry, adjust seasonings and serve over
biscuits or toast, rice or buttered noodles, garnished
with the parsley.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Mr. Breakfast's Biscuits
Categories: Five, Breads, Dairy
Yield: 10 Servings

8 tb Unsalted butter; cold
2 tb Shortening; cold *
3 c Unbleached self-rising flour
1 1/2 c Buttermilk; cold
Extra slivers of butter or
- cream for moistening and
- brushing

* Lard works, too. - UDD

Adjust oven rack to middle position and set oven @
450?F/230?C.

Cut shortening and butter into dry ingredients with a
pastry cutter, or two forks, until it looks like coarse
meal. Return bowl to the freezer or refrigerator if butter
becomes warm.

Stir in milk with a large fork or rubber spatula. Once
dough starts to clump, bring it into a ball with your
hands, pressing it into bottom of bowl to pick up scraps.
If dough doesn't come together, sprinkle in a little more
milk, and continue pressing on scraps until they
incorporate.

On a lightly floured surface, press dough into a rough
square, then roll out into a about 3/4 in thick. Try to
handle as little as possible and mix just enough to bring
the dough together.

Roll dough out.

Use a 2" biscuit cutter to cut dough into rounds and place
about a 1/2" together in a cake pan or 1" apart on baking
sheet. How far apart you bake them gives you a different
kind of edge, so experiment. I like my edges soft so I put
them pretty close together and they end up touching each
other when finished baking.

Place a small sliver of butter on the top of each biscuit
or brush the tops with melted butter or cream.

Bake until golden brown 12-15 minutes.

NOTE: If you can't get self-rising flour, use 4 teaspoons
baking powder and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt. You can also
use regular milk, if necessary, but add it slowly because
the amount may be less. These go really well with sausage
or tomato gravy.
